Thanks I’m joking
Alfred um I’m here to talk about Dharavi
how Dharavi is just known to the other
people as a join of the worst dirty slum
but I am trying to say all Dharavi
special economic zone today we have
everywhere to create a special economic
zone government of Maharashtra has to
sell out billions of rupees given land
give all kind of concession which nobody
gets it but Dharavi on is owned by the
people of Dharavi the inhabitant of
Dharavi today set up kind of special
economic zone Dharavi situated about
five hundred and twenty acres of land
almost around 400,000 people are living
there school everything whatever you
name it everything is there the beauty
of the Ravi how Dhara contributes to the
whole society of Mumbai whole for for
that matter today if Dhara is not
collecting the waste it would have been
like a smoky mountain of Manila but here
because of the garbage isn’t collected
by all over the city come to therapy for
recycling I normally tell everybody in
Ravi and and the teeth that means air
and born has been recycled everything
under the Sun is recycled in Dharavi
everybody here all the people collect
60% of people almost 60% of people don’t
have to go to outside to earn their
living because they are all income
generation activity they all earned
there everything is produced here every
of
every next thing is if you go to you as
you go into the streets of Jerusalem you
see what is police in Dharavi leather
goods available there cloth is available
there but that is where people of Daraa
V has developed the technique you see
the plastic the thinnest plastic which
scientists unable to find out a machine
to recycle it but the resident of
Dharavi developed that today every day
there is around three temples or threads
load of recycling material produced and
it goes to in dune if it doesn’t go to
endure the endure PVC industry will not
function because the garbage is not come
because raw material does not come this
is where the beauty of the avi what we
are trying to see in the development of
the avi this is the main concern why
karahi is not yet getting develop why
the government is struggling why
everybody is putting the foot foot and
say that I was dirty Zara exactly look
at how that aiways been contributing how
people of Daraa has been contributing to
this society’s well if that is not there
while I’ve been piled up till now
but you see how there are we people men
and women everybody so for example let
me say you won’t look at it Italy around
600,000 at least produce every day in
Dharavi you go to the airport
International Airport are you go to
Kalama an taj outside the Italy is
available this is all tradition year
this is where the people are Dara be
completely contributing to the economy
to the society and this is not a ways
this is not criminal this is not
anti-social element that is not the
point of view what da ravikant
Society you look at it and now they have
been quite a bit
without anything getting anything from
the government it is not the government
which is given to you it is not the
subsidy it is not there at one point of
time Nara we had one toilet for every
eight hundred people if you stand in the
queue you will not go into the toilet
you will go to heaven that is what the
situation but that now the corporation
others altogether a state government got
together now we have got that into two
hundred and fifty four now that
also has to change that is where we are
all the people of Dharavi are concerned
how do we improve nobody interested in
living in a very bad way but we need to
do all that as as together people
participated that development cannot
come from outside Kofi Annan once when
he made clearly declared in Dharavi kind
of people they are having kind of
situation which is a saucer of Mumbai
